@Quatschmacher @Kev Could either of you expand on the issue with the tubes please? By PM if easier.

 

I've recently received a new Finally V3 and love it, but the first time I used it in anger at performance volume today (I'd only set it up beforehand) there was a lot of noise which seemed to be coming from the physical pedalboard chassis - i.e. when you stepped on a pedal the clunk seemed to reverberate through the board.

 

It seems linked to the Finally as when bypassed it was fine, all the connections are good and didn't happen before it was on the board. 

 

My stock tube was really microphonic so that the sound of tapping on the chassis would be amplified.

Could that be an indication the tube is microphonic?  Try opening up the finally when it's on and connected to an amp and gently tap the tube, see what kind of sound it sends through the amp, if any.

Ah, that sounds like the same issue then.

Don’t even need to open it up, just tapping the pedal (or even the board) makes a clunking noise.

Contact Nathan, he’ll cover the cost of a replacement tube.

I just meant doing that would make it absolutely sure it was the tube 👍
